Permanent Exhibition

Another case of teapots is located on the other side of the room with mirrors behind to show the backs of the beautiful teapots.* * *

In 1962, Mrs. Evelyn Hardwood, then the City Recorder, was appointed Acting Curator of the exhibit. On her retirement in June 1978 the city council named her as permanent Curator of the Teapot Collection, and as such she provided tours for visiting groups. Mrs. Harwood was also the first Teapot Parade Marshall. She died in 2006 at the age of 105.
